Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Bobby takes a battering: Bobby Felstein (right) staggers after taking a punch from George Chuvalo, while refree Harry Davis moves in. Chuvalo, 39, won the bout with a ninth-round knockout to recapture the Canadian heavyweight title that he held for nearly all of his 21 years in ring. More than 5,000 paid about $60,000 to watch bout at North York Centennial Arena. Chuvalo said after victory he may retire. I'll wait and see what happens.
